Kantara once again doubled its weekend numbers in its third week, collecting Rs. 37 crores approx over the weekend in India. Though rare, at times, films grow in the second weekend from the first, repeating the same in the third weekend is a sight to behold and then here there is this film that has doubled every weekend since its release.

The second weekend had seen collections doubling on the strength of the momentum the film was carrying from a glowing word of mouth while in the third weekend it was the release of dubbed versions that propelled the collections. That said, even the holdover market, Karnataka had an uptick in collections as well, growing 15 per cent from the second weekend for Rs. 20 crores approx, 2.35 times that of KGF 2, which previously held the record for the biggest third weekend in the state.

The seventeen days total box office collections of Kantara in India stands at Rs. 99 crores approx. The film will be entering the Rs. 100 crores grossers club today, making it only the third Sandalwood movie ever to do so after two KGF movies. The film did cross the three-digit mark worldwide, with $1.30 million coming from overseas, for a global total of Rs. 110 crores approx.
